#707 Metallica – Metallica

Metallica again. Oh the joy that fills my heart. I get to listen to another one of their crappy albums. This is their third album on the list. Hopefully, it will be the last. Metallica aka The Black Album is their fifth studio album. The band moved from thrash metal to heavy metal. That could be […]

#706 Teenage Fanclub – Bandwagonesque

I do not think I have ever heard Teenage Fanclub’s music. Bandwagonesque is their third album. This album beat out Nirvana‘s Nevermind as album of the year according to Spin magazine. The first song that grabbed me was the last song on the album “Is This Music?“. It is a beautiful instrumental. They should have made […]

#705 Primal Scream – Screamadelica

I have never heard any of Scottish band Primal Scream‘s music. I am not sure why. I often wonder why I skipped some music. I could at least try it. I think the names of some of these bands make me think it is a genre I would hate. Screamadelica is their third album. It was critically […]

#704 Massive Attack – Blue Lines

I knew someone who listened to Massive Attack. He worked at the local bookstore, but it was a few years later than the release of their debut album Blue Lines. I have never heard this album. The only song that I sort of liked was “Safe from Harm“. I am not going to waste anymore time […]

#703 The KLF – The White Room

I remember The KLF. I am a bit surprised they made the list, but there is probably a reason for it. I think I had their fourth album The White Room. I like British electronica so I have hopes for this album to be great. Sadly, the album is not available on Spotify. I listened to […]

#702 U2 – Achtung Baby

Achtung Baby is U2‘s seventh studio album. I believe this was their truly last spectacular album. The albums that followed it are not fully realised or totally gone astray as with Pop. I have not even listened to their last two albums, but I eventually will. I have become a bit disappointed in their lack […]

#701 Slint – Spiderland

I have never heard of Slint. They broke up after making their second album Spiderland. It is considered a foundational post-rock album. The album deals with the theme of alienation. Supposedly the band was a bit on the mental side. This album is so weirdly good. It is definitely not for everyone. The vocals are mostly […]

#700 Sepultura – Arise

I have never heard the Brazilian band Sepultura. I am not a fan of thrash or death metal so I missed the release of their fourth album Arise. Actually, I missed the release of all their albums. I wonder if the name death metal comes from their concert in Brazil in 1991 where six people were […]

#699 Saint Etienne – Foxbase Alpha

Saint Etienne? How did I forget this band? I used to have their first two albums Foxbase Alpha and So Tough. This was the British band’s debut album, which infused house music with 60s pop. Originally it was a duo Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs who worked with different female singers, until they worked with Sarah Cracknell. She […]

#698 Pearl Jam – Ten

Pearl Jam is the worst. I would rather listen to Nickleback live than listen to Pearl Jam’s debut album Ten. I cannot stand Eddie Vedder’s voice. Is he even singing? I think he is so full of himself. I remember watching an award show and he went up to accept it. He had the audacity […]
